Foremost African financial institution; Guaranty
Trust Bank plc reaffirmed its position as a leading global brand with its
recent recognition as the ‘Best Bank in
Nigeria & Best Digital Bank in Africa’ during the 2016 Euromoney Awards
which held in London on Wednesday, July 06, 2016 at the prestigious Tower of
London.
Now in its 25th year, the Euromoney
Awards for Excellence covers more than 20 global product categories,
best-in-class awards and the best Banks in over 100 countries around the world
by recognizing institutions that have demonstrated leadership, innovation, and
momentum in the markets they operate. In selecting its recipients, Euromoney
combines quantitative and qualitative data to honor institutions that have
brought the highest levels of service, innovation and expertise to their
customers.
According to Mr. Clive Horwood, Euromoney
Magazine’s Editor, “Competition for the awards this year was tough, arguably
the toughest it has been since the start of the global financial crisis. In
winning these awards, GTBank stands out not only because of its stellar
performance but by its ability to define what its core strengths are, abide by
these strengths and build its business around them. According to him, banking
in the future will be about what you do, as well as what you don't do. GTBank
stands out as Euromoneys’ best bank in Nigeria & Africa’s Best Digital Bank
for its ability to adapt to local situations while maintaining international
standards of best practice."
Receiving the award on
behalf of the Bank, Segun Agbaje, Managing Director/CEO of GTBank said "We
are humbled and proud to emerge double award winners for Best Bank in Nigeria
& Best Digital Bank in Africa. Winning these awards is an acknowledgement
of the hard work and dedication of our staff, management and Board. It also
represents our commitment to serving our customers and making banking simpler
and more accessible for them.
He
further stated that, winning the “Best Bank in Nigeria” award a record nine
times is a reflection of the loyalty of our stakeholders which enables us
consistently deliver superior performance.
GTBank has consistently played a leading role in
Africa’s banking industry. The GTBank brand is regarded by industry watchers as
one of the best run financial institutions across its subsidiary countries and
serves as a role model within the financial service industry due to its bias
for world class corporate governance standards, excellent service quality and
innovation.
